Not
quite as good when we departed last week, but it could have been a one-off.
We left the F lounge a few minutes after the flight was called and got to the gate to see other passengers from the lounge queuing. After a few minutes Group 1 was called then -- maybe 15 seconds later -- Group 2. Roughly 200 passengers felt this applied to them -- and on this route that's possible. After a while a more senior staff member arrived and was clearly not impressed with the way things were going. She started checking BPs for group numbers, but there wasn't really much else she could do by that point.
